  • Built to the permit set, ready for city inspection
Learn more

  • Fire and water damaged framing cut back and rebuilt
  • Laid out so drywall, trim and cabinets land where they should
Learn more

Tight miters, scribed fits, consistent reveals. This is where a carpenter shows.

Included in your service

  • Casing, paneling and wainscoting fitted to the room as built
  • Scribing to walls that are neither flat nor plumb
  • Coped joints on inside corners instead of caulked gaps
  • Profiles matched to existing Victorian and Edwardian millwork
Learn more

Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation

Crown, base and casing cut for the ceiling you actually have, not a perfect one.

Included in your service

  • Coped inside corners, mitered and glued outside corners
  • Baseboard, chair rail and window trim run to a clean line
  • Period profiles matched or kept crisp and modern, your call
  • Filled, sanded and caulked ready for paint
Learn more

Custom Built-Ins & Shelving

Built for the alcove you have: bay windows, sloped ceilings, awkward corners.

Included in your service

  • Bookshelves, window seats, media walls and Murphy beds
  • Designed around compact floor plans, not around stock sizes
  • Scribed and shimmed so nothing reads as an add-on
  • Face frames, doors and drawers aligned before we leave
Learn more

Interior Door Installation & Repair

Doors that stick or swing open on their own are usually the frame, not the door.

Included in your service

  • Jamb, hinges and reveal checked before anything is replaced
  • Doors hung, planed and adjusted to a settled opening
  • Damaged jambs and door frames repaired rather than swapped
  • Pocket and barn door hardware installed and tuned

Entry, back and French doors set weather-tight against fog and wind-driven rain.

Included in your service

  • Opening flashed and sill pan set before the unit goes in
  • Rotted frames and thresholds repaired or fully replaced
  • Shimmed plumb so the door seals along its whole edge
  • Weatherstripping, hardware and strike plates fitted properly
Learn more

Cabinet & Vanity Installation

Level cabinets in a house where almost nothing is level. That is the whole job.

Included in your service

  • Floors and walls checked and a true level line struck first
  • Boxes shimmed, scribed to out-of-square walls and fastened
  • Kitchen, bath vanity and laundry storage set as one run
  • Doors, drawers and hardware aligned and adjusted at the end
Learn more

Stair & Railing Repair

Squeaky treads and loose banisters, repaired without rebuilding the whole stair.

Included in your service

  • Stringers, treads and risers checked for wear and movement
  • Loose newel posts and balusters re-anchored, not just glued
  • Period railings restored where the original stock is sound
  • Handrails and attic ladders installed to code height and grip
Learn more

Deck & Porch Repair

Repair first. We only recommend replacing when the framing no longer justifies it.

Included in your service

  • Boards, posts, stairs and framing probed for hidden decay
  • Rotted members replaced, sound structure kept and reused
  • Ledger connection and flashing checked where the deck meets the house
  • An honest repair-versus-replace number before work starts
Learn more

Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair

Soft fascia and peeling paint at the roofline are the first sign of rot moving in.

Included in your service

  • Fascia, soffit and exterior trim replaced back to sound wood
  • Primed rot-resistant material on all six faces before install
  • Gaps closed so moisture and pests stop getting into the roofline
  • Ready for paint, with the water path corrected first

Our rates in San Diego

ServiceStarting fromDescription
🪵 Wood Rot & Dry Rot Repair From $650 In San Diego, dry rot hides behind cracking stucco long before anyone sees it. We cut out the decayed framing, siding and trim, treat what stays, and rebuild in rot-resistant lumber. Exposed coastal walls in Ocean Beach and Point Loma get heavier stock than an inland Rancho Bernardo tract home.
🐜 Termite Damage Repair From $1,200 After the exterminator leaves, the damaged wood is still holding the house up. We work from your pest inspection report to replace damaged studs, sills, trim and subfloor sections. Frost-free winters let drywood colonies spread year round here, so we probe well past the visible galleries before closing a wall.
🔩 Floor Joist & Subfloor Repair From $1,800 Soft or bouncy floors usually start under a San Diego home's raised floor. We sister or replace compromised joists, rebuild subfloor sections and reset piers, then level before finishes go back down. Crawl spaces on canyon lots get their drainage looked at while we are under there.
🏗️ Beam Replacement & Load-Bearing Wall Removal From $3,500 Opening up a floor plan is structural carpentry, not demolition work. We set engineered beams, replace sagging headers and remove load-bearing walls to the engineer's specification and the city permit, carrying new posts down to a real footing rather than stopping at the subfloor.
📐 Framing & Structural Carpentry From $2,500 Remodel framing is the part nobody sees and the part every finish depends on. New interior walls, garage and canyon-lot build-outs, wall openings, and repairs to fire or water damaged framing, all straight, plumb and inspected. Shear panels on stucco-over-frame walls go back the way they came off.
🪚 Finish & Trim Carpentry From $550 Tight miters, scribed fits and consistent reveals are what finish work is. We run casing, paneling, wainscoting and custom trim in San Diego homes of every era, scribing to the rounded plaster reveals of a Mission-style room instead of forcing a square edge onto it.
👑 Crown Molding & Baseboard Installation From $450 Crown, baseboard, chair rail and window trim, coped rather than mitered. We match the profiles already running through a Kensington or South Park bungalow, or keep the lines crisp in a Clairemont mid-century, with caulk joints that stay closed on wavy plaster ceilings.
📚 Custom Built-Ins & Shelving From $1,900 Built-ins earn their space when they are cut to the room, not bought to fit. Bookshelves, window seats, media walls, closet systems and Murphy beds, fitted to the arched openings, stepped ceilings and shallow alcoves that come with Spanish Colonial Revival floor plans.
🚪 Interior Door Installation & Repair From $350 A door that sticks or drifts open is usually telling you about its frame. We hang, adjust and replace interior doors, repair jambs, rebuild openings that have gone out of square, and fit pocket and barn doors. In San Diego that movement is often drywood termite damage in the jamb rather than settlement.
🔐 Exterior & Entry Door Installation From $850 An entry door near the coast fails at its threshold and its flashing first. We install entry, back and French doors weather-tight against wind-driven rain and marine-layer damp, with corrosion-resistant hardware in the beach communities. Rotted frames and thresholds are repaired or the full unit replaced.
🗄️ Cabinet & Vanity Installation From $1,100 Cabinets are only ever as good as the floor and the wall they are set against. We level kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities and laundry storage across out-of-level raised floors, scribe to out-of-square stucco-over-frame walls, then align the hardware and adjust every door.
🪜 Stair & Railing Repair From $600 A squeaking tread and a loose newel post are a joint problem, not a surface one. We repair and rebuild staircases, reseat newels and balusters, restore period railings and fit graspable handrails to current code. Split stringers in canyon-lot split-levels get sistered rather than skinned over.
🌉 Deck & Porch Repair From $900 Salt air and marine-layer damp are harder on a deck here than the rainfall is. We replace rotted boards, posts and railings, repair stairs and the framing underneath, and use stainless fixings on exposed coastal decks. We repair first, and say plainly when replacement is the honest answer.
🏠 Fascia, Soffit & Exterior Trim Repair From $700 Peeling paint on a fascia board is the first visible sign of the rot behind it. We replace fascia, soffits and exterior trim in primed rot-resistant stock, reopen blocked soffit vents, and close the gaps that let moisture and drywood termites into the roofline behind a tile course.
